ABSTRACT:
A device for interrupting the travel of an object, such as a container, on a conveyor belt during a manufacturing operation includes a driven wheel and at least one idler resiliently urged towards the drive wheel. Both wheels are spaced apart a distance less than the diameter of the object. The drive wheel turns in a direction tending to move an object in the pocket in the direction of the conveyor. By stopping rotation of the idler, the object is rolled through the space between the wheel and the idler, the idler giving way for it.
